The TE Connectivity AMP-Latch 1658622-7 is a 30-position, 2-row receptacle for mass-termination ribbon cable. It uses forked contacts — a design that mates with the square pins of a standard AMP-Latch header — and terminates 26-28 AWG ribbon cable via an IDC slot.
Gold Contact Finish — Why 30.0µin Matters for This Receptacle
The forked contact geometry wipes against the header pin on each mate, and the gold thickness ensures the wipe doesn't expose the base metal.
The 1658622-7 terminates 26-28 AWG ribbon cable through an IDC slot — no stripping, no crimping, no solder. The free-hanging (in-line) mount means this receptacle sits at the end of the cable, not on a board. The polarizing key and feed-through feature prevent misalignment during assembly: the key aligns the cable to the contact pattern, and the feed-through lets the cable pass straight through the connector body for daisy-chain routing.
Where the 1658622-7 Fits in the AMP-Latch Line
The 1658622-7 sits at 30 positions — a common count for a 16-bit data bus plus control lines, or a 30-conductor ribbon cable in a D-sub breakout.
